Description of πŸ•’ BARTON Choice Standard Men's Watch Bands

EASY SWAP: No need to remove spring bars to swap different color combinations in and out. Swap in seconds for a new look daily!. SELECT PROPER WIDTH: Available in 18mm, 20mm, 22mm and 24mm widths to fit thousands of watch models. To determine proper width for your watch, use a metric ruler to measure the lug width or the width of the current band at the point where it attaches. If your watch has an odd lug width (19mm, 21mm or 23mm), we recommend going with the strap 1mm larger than measured. The material is soft and should squeeze in nicely. LENGTH SELECTION GUIDELINES: 'Standard' length (available in 18mm, 20mm and 22mm widths) measures approximately 10-inches and fits wrists from 5" to 7 1/2" in circumference. 'Long' version (available in 20mm, 22mm and 24mm widths) measures approximately 11-inches and fits wrists from 6" to 8 1/2". Those with larger wrists (above 7 1/4") typically prefer the 'Long' version. Watch geometry will also impact fit. THE PERFECT BALLISTIC NYLON: Lightweight and breathable, yet very sturdy. Barton bands are typically softer than other nylon watch bands, but have a tighter weave, making them equally or more durable. LASER CUT, ULTRASONICALLY WELDED, WATER PROOF and WASHABLE: Laser cut to eliminate fraying; Ultrasonic welding combines two pieces of nylon into one homogenous piece forming a stronger bond and cleaner look than stitching.

Good but not very reliable

Barton seems to know a lot about Revain and is presented as good material. After a long search for a color that would go well with my blue Orient Ray II, I settled on gray with a linen strap. It looks great, is comfortable and fits my small wrist. However, not as reliable as I expected. It's not one of those thick nylon straps like my Momentum quartz watch - it's fine as long as it's durable. But it also has a slightly flimsy buckle (see other reviews for the spring bar that secures the buckle,

Pros
  • A Dream Come True
Cons
  • Easily Repairable

I'm relatively new to NATO watch straps and have heard good things about Barton but if I knew what I know now I wouldn't buy this one Belt. The first thing that struck me when I received it was the lack of stitching. The item description says they use an "ultrasonic" connection or something, but I'm not sure how much I believe that. There are other brands that sell these straps and the photos look pretty much the same, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was just their rebranded versions and the…

Wear issues

Just something that needs to be done immediately. I abuse my watches and watch bands. For me, they are essential equipment and I need things that can withstand wear and tear. I basically wear my watch 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and it goes everywhere I go, in tight spaces, when working on projects, whatever. So, as they say, I wear a Maratac pilot's watch and I'm very thankful for its sapphire dome because if it weren't it would already be scratched to the point of being unusable. It holds…

  • Large selection

Great bracelet Bracelet

This bracelet looks great - it's light weight yet very strong. It is more breathable than leather or silicone. The color is very nice (can't see it exactly in the photo but it's a nice off-white with a dark blue stripe. In the photo it looks black but it's a lot bluer and very pretty). I think this is a very good everyday color for summer - it reminds me of sailing. I have no doubts about the durability of the band. I would say it will probably last longer than any leather strap and not wear…

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Secret

ATTENTION: ANOTHER spring bar is responsible for a total loss!

The whole purpose of the NATO style strap is to hold and save the watch in case a spring bar fails. What did I find when I received this product? The buckle has a single spring bar. a failure will cause the watch and bracelet to fall off your wrist; In fact, it happened to another one-star reviewer (see "Needs better quality control in product" below) and it shattered his crystal. This single spring bar is quite weak and lightly spring loaded and fits freely into the buckle. Genuine NATO straps

Pros
  • cool product
